Inside each game category there are multiple levels and types of play offered, with content informed by both Common Core and state guidelines. Children will enjoy the challenge, and parents will appreciate the ability to track their child’s progress as they earn stars for completion of each level. Voice narration allows pre-readers to follow along and increase their phonological awareness. The sound can be muted to provide emergent readers with a greater challenge.

Experts agree that preschool is a critical time for learning. Why waste these years on mindless video games? With KidZilla, parents can be sure that they are maximizing their child’s learning potential. The app highlights the academic building blocks all kids need for success in school and beyond.
